movespeed increase while on blight

[PrisonLove]

How would I go about making an ability that increases a hero's movement speed while on the blight? I want it to stack with any boots of speed items, so I have to rule out adding the item ability when he comes onto the blight.
Thank in advance.

one way to do this could be something like:

Unit enter region

Set Triggering unit's movespeed to x well im not sure but maybe.

I'd prefer not to use regions because I have an ability that can create blight and I don't want to have to make regions every time the ability is used.

I think you can trigger it using the condition 'Unit has Specific buff equal to [true/false].' with some Aura.. I think the Aura of Blight spell detects units on blight, but I might not be completely accurate.

i guess i have just found the answer, or almost.
Unit enter playable map area

If Terrain type comparison equal to (a tile, in this case blight)
Set triggerings movespeed to x
Else do nothing

You'll need a tiny region that constantly moves with the hero.
The region is so you can check if the terrain underneath is blighted.
If it is blighted, you modify the units run speed.

How are you guys so misinformed?

well Vegavak that was what i tried to say exept that you says that he need a tiny region to follow wich i think is right because mine idea only work sif he enter the region.

Or you could just use

Every x second ingame time

pick every units owned by player x

if Terrain type comparison equal to (a tile, in this case blight) at position of triggering unit
Set triggerings movespeed to x
Else do nothing

Your advice is terrible. Please, stop giving it.

Easy as this:

function Trig_Untitled_Trigger_001_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local real x = GetUnitX( u )
    local real y = GetUnitY( u )
    if ( GetTerrainType(x, y) == (blight id) ) then
        call SetUnitMoveSpeed(u, faster speed)
    else
        call SetUnitMoveSpeed(u, usual speed)
    endif
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_001 takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_001 = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_001, 1.00 )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_001, function Trig_Untitled_Trigger_001_Actions )
endfunction

Thanks overload, very nice.

oh, this is how they do the terrain things in that maze creator map huh? that's cool...so instead of blight id you put in info like grass id for grass tile and snow id for snow tile right? i saw map that makes units slide around on ice, how does that work? and lava damaging units seems easy to make and grass killing the unit also seems easy.

and by the way...isn't that an incomplete trigger? don't you have to set local unit u= some unit id or whatever to complete the trigger?

Yes it is, but I can do the rest on my own.

The only thing I need to know is how to find the terrain tile ID's. Any help there?

slighty modified overloads script:

function Trig_Untitled_Trigger_001_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local real x = GetUnitX( 'u001' )
    local real y = GetUnitY( 'u001' )
    BJDebugMsg( GetTerrainType(x, y) )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_001 takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_001 = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_001, 1.00 )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_001, function Trig_Untitled_Trigger_001_Actions )
endfunction

just run the map, walk on some blight ( put some unit's id in place of 'u001') and watch what number pops up

Thanks a lot.

I found some good solution in GUI
you put somewhere blight for example to 1,1 coordinates
every second
and you say If Terrain type on position of <unit> is same as terrain type in 1,1 then give <unit> berserk and order it to use it and remove the berserk (and you make duration 1 so it gets removed as long as unit wont cast it)
